Are tree roots in my lawn a problem?

• <div><p>Surface-level tree roots might only pose a small threat, such as being a tripping hazard or obstacle when you mow your lawn. But if mature tree roots start growing in the direction of your home’s foundation or plumbing system, it could be a real problem. Cutting small tree roots out before they grow too large can keep your home safe without removing the whole tree.</p></div>

Q: What are the benefits of professional tree removal?

• <div><p>Professionals ensure safety, prevent property damage, and handle debris efficiently.</p></div>

Q: Why is my tree bark peeling?

• <div><p>Some trees, such as silver maples, birches, sycamores, and scotch pines, shed their bark naturally. If your tree is not one that does this, it might have fallen prey to pests, fungi, or diseases. It could also simply be suffering from an extreme weather change, such as a snowstorm or heat wave. If you&rsquo;re still stumped, consulting with a pro can help you diagnose your tree&rsquo;s specific problem.</p></div>

Q: Do I need to prune evergreen conifers?

• <div><p>Not all evergreen conifers need to be pruned, but some do. Pruning pine trees is not necessary, but you can do so during June and July if you wish. On the other hand, spruce, firs, and junipers do need to be pruned from late winter to early spring.</p></div>

Q: What's the difference between trimming and pruning a tree?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-prune-tree.htm">Pruning a tree</a> is a yearly DIY job that involves removing small dead branches, leaves, and blooms to help the tree grow bigger and stronger. You can often complete the job with basic home gardening tools. Trimming a tree, however, removes larger sections to control the direction the tree grows in and protects your home, utility wires, and yard from potentially dangerous branches.</p></div>

"They were out here a couple of times. Their prices were not the highest, not the lowest. I still have my sprinklers not working right. I wasn't pleased with the quality of the work. They came out twice to supposedly get my sprinklers running right but they still haven't fixed it."
